Fuel Additives?

Anybody have any opinions about fuel tank additives such as Injector Cleaner, Fuel System Cleaner, Octane booster, etc... I used to use them in my old.. american car.. and they seemed to smooth things out a bit, but I'm debating whether or not to use them in my 98 SE

I used to use octane booster in my old Chevy S-10, and it worked fine...... but I dont know if I would use anything in my Nissan other than Techron

They're all worthless. If Nissan saw any benefit, they would produce their own and market it.

i use fuel injector cleaner and tend to think it smooths my idle and acceleration. If anything it doesnt hurt.

I use the RedLine fuel system cleaner every 4 months or so. I've never tried the Techron but I'm very satisfied w/ the RedLine.
